Charlotte Dawson Has Died

One of Australia’s most popular television identities, Charlotte Dawson, has been found dead at the age of 47 after a long history of depression. Dawson was a judge for many seasons on Australia’s Next Top Model was an influential anti-bullying and health campaigner. The star, who was had been hospitalized at least twice after suicide attempts in recent years, had a public history of depression.

Depression is truly horrible. Didn't know who she was but this is truly sad.It's very hard to keep positive when you have depression and when you are you have to keep working on not sinking back into the dark hole- really horrible

Really tragic. She was hospitalised last year after being trolled on her twitter. She was very brave about speaking about it & revealing her depression to the world. RIP Charlotte. May your tragic loss have a positive outcome in the continued dialogue about bullying & mental health.

Very sad indeed. My husband suffers from depression and when he gets into the dark hole it's heartbreaking. Telling him how much I need and love him feels so inadequate. The worst part is what her family must be going through.

And my hugs to you too, Licky. Like Honeycatt said, it kills right out in the open. No matter how hard they may have tried (see David Foster Wallace) sometimes the family is unable to save their loved ones.
